Shut Up and Help for the Holidays, Sherlock BBC fan art by Amy Crook

Shut Up and Help for the Holidays,
Sherlock BBC fan art by Amy Crook

I decided I wanted a second Sherlock holiday card this year, and I decided it had to have Sherlock being his usual annoying self. I spared John any truly awful Christmas sweaters, but made him carry all the boxes.

Shut Up and Help for the Holidays, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic markers on paper, nfs (sold).

Thinking in Grey

Thinking in Grey, Sherlock fan art by Amy Crook

Copic markers have four kinds of grey — warm, cool, neutral and toner. I used warm and cool greys to put in all shading here, giving the whole image a muted effect like an old photo. You might recognize the pose from last week’s bookmark, which was sort of practice for this bigger piece, though of course I widened the view quite a bit.

Sherlock Bookmark 5 by Amy Crook

I couldn’t resist drawing up one of the iconic scenes from A Study in Pink, where Sherlock’s laid out on the couch solving his “three patch problem.” I’m inordinately fond of my Sherlockian stick figure cartoons, I must admit, but my lovely readers are, too, since he’s already sold!

Above, you can see a detail of his thinking face and fancy pillow. Below, he’s snuggled up to a book just waiting to go to his new home!

Tea or Death, a Sherlock comic by Amy Crook

Tea or Death, a Sherlock comic by Amy Crook

John is most displeased to have woken up to find all the tea in the house sacrificed to one of Sherlock’s mad experiments. Let’s hope for everyone’s sake that Sherlock errs on the side of caution and comes home with a nice big box!

Sherlock Discovers Bubble Tea, colored

Sherlock Discovers Bubble Tea comic by Amy Crook

Sherlock Discovers Bubble Tea comic by Amy Crook
now with bonus color!

After an inking mishap with this comic required some Photoshop love to make it workable, I put it away in a drawer sad for its fate. Then I decided to try to color it anyway, and through the magic of pinstripes you can’t tell where I mis-inked it at all, yay! I decided to do Sherlock’s clothes in cool blue and give Mycroft a nice warm yellow shirt and golden tie, which goes well with the warm brown tapioca ball stuck to his forehead.
